"A" thought... or two...or three: February 2011

Thursday, February 17, 2011. Lately we've been handed some - tougher times. I pause because nothing we've been handed is anything that we can't overcome. I won't bore you with all the sordid details but for a moment all we could do was sit back, let it all sink in and cry. All the limbo was totally weighing us down. And our house was full of sickness, too. We didn't do much that day. We huddled in beneath warm, fuzzy blankets while the bitter temps hovered around 10 degrees all day. The pets didn...On an...

Thursday, September 15, 2011. When I'm with my kids I want to be totally, completely present. With them 100%. But I'm not. I'm not anywhere totally 100%. I don't mean this to complain. Afterall. I have VERY little to actually complain about. Well, really nothing. But since we're only human it's hard to balance out the "what I should focus on" with the "what my human side dwells on". So, today is a post on things that make me happy. Happiness in the purest of fashions. I find myself totally captivated wit...

Tuesday, June 21, 2011. Move over, Princess Kate! Cause there's a new princess in town! And it's my sister! Absolutely stunning. No other words for it. I don't think I ever truly believed that Holly was an unlucky person even though this has been her claim ever since we first met. But this weekend had me second guessing! Now all the 12:00 appointments know, at least! Seriously, they did a WONDERFUL job pampering us and we had the best looking toes in town! It was her itinerary for the weekend festivities!

Friday, April 9, 2010. Spring time colors = pure happiness. :). For me, these two go hand in hand. I love color. Lots and lots of color. Our first house that Brandon and I ever lived in had no two rooms painted the same color. Every room was it's own shade of a bright vivid color. I loved it. It made me happy. It still makes me happy. We had a lovely Easter holiday. I was able to attend Jagger's Easter party at pre. Put personal touches on his/her eggs. They were so proud of these. Lawson being my artist...

Thursday, October 20, 2011. Here we are again. Smack in the middle of a perfect fall season- my favorite season of them all. The overture to all this amazingness has been rivaled by non other. We have had houses full of company, we have spent beautiful weekends outdoors and it has been so good for the soul. Managed to capture this little jewel of a pic the other night as my two super-heros sat, entranced by the super-hero game they were playing on x-box! Hope you are gathering your nuts today! Blessings ...

Wednesday, March 23, 2011. In with the new. Times, they are a changing. Spring is here and with it came promises of new beginnings. Promises of flowers to bloom. Promises of budding trees. Promises of green grass. Of fresh, clear, blue skies and warm sunshine. We welcome it. And we bask in it. Springtime reassures us that the circle of life is alive and kicking. Everything is revived. Hums of lawnmowers and giggling neighborhood kids usher in the warmth. And you can feel it, you know? The sunshine also p...

Friday, May 13, 2011. Chaotic Happiness, Take One! In all the hustle and bustle of welcoming back sunshine and warmth we've managed to keep ourselves overly occupied. It's been a happy occupied though. Let's see.some high-lights. Easter came and went. We had both sides of our families present so that made it extra special. I had the three most handsome little boys ever and they thoroughly enjoyed hunting eggs. Random discovery: pay the extra money for a good, customizable. There are no drama queens to co...

Tuesday, March 30, 2010. Dancing in the Rain. I've always heard the saying, " Life is not about waiting out the storm but learning to dance in the rain". We're trying to learn to dance in the rain. They carried them around and prayed for rain so they'd be able to use their new umbrellas (and used them for sword fights until the rain came. Can't let them go unused, you know! It's hard not knowing what to do for a little one who is feeling so rotten. Those eyes just look at you like you're not doing al...

Monday, October 18, 2010. The Whole Truth, and Nothing but the Truth. Here's a glimpse of what last weekend held for us:. Last week I set out on a 5 hour drive with my three boys to visit my brother for a few days. With The Wiggles playing over and over on the DVD player I got lost in my thoughts, I think in an attempt to keep my sanity intact. I mean I doubt this blogger has ever even seen my blog or read the first sentence about my family meanderings.). I'm not perfect. *Gasp! Shocking, I know! So, her...
